description Investors’ use borrowing as a way to profit from leverage advantages in their portfolios. When investors borrow with their securities as safety for the loan and the value of the securities decrease the investor can get a portfolio with more credit than what is covered by the value of the securities and risk huge losses. To what extent an investor is allowed to borrow with his portfolio as safety depends on the bank or broker and varies between the providers. By studying available material and in addition to that making an empirical study I attempt to find out the reason for the varying degrees of leverage possibilities between the brokers and how the degree of maximum borrowing on the securities are decided. The findings show that decision of leverage degree on a security is made after first making a quantitative analysis of the stocks volatility and liquidity and thereafter make a qualitative analysis of the company. What I think should be of more focus is the portfolios combination of securities and how diversification changes the portfolios risk.
